My hubby and I just returned from a 4 day vacation to Vegas, our first trip to sin city. We stayed at the Cosmopolitan Las Vegas hotel, and had the most amazing views from our terrace.

During our Disney Wonder cruise down the West coast, the ship docked right beside Pier 39 and Fisherman's Wharf, the perfect place for families to sightsee while in San Francisco. Fisherman’s Wharf is also home to Pier 39, which I included in my San Francisco for family travel post, yet The Wharf and surrounding area offer so much, so it needed it's own post! Note that it's a busy location, so expect tons of … [Read more...]

After all, I'm not the type of person to casually break news like this over breakfast cereal. I like to do things big, especially for something this big, just like when we told the kids … [Read more...]
During my time in Los Angeles last month for #DisneyInHomeBloggers, I had a complete OMG moment. While press trips and other behind-the-scenes tours that I attend, leave me with that 'wow' feeling {completely fortunate that I have these moments, btw}, there was one particular tour that was nothing short of amazing. Literally, my mouth dropped and I don't think it shut the entire time. Let me take you through a top … [Read more...]
Sitting on the terrace, overlooking the city of Los Angeles. It's barely after 6am and already the city comes to live. Or does it ever sleep? I'm at The London West Hollywood in Los Angeles I just got back from LA, for the #DisneyInHomeBloggers Event, staying at chic and modern, The London West Hollywood. I recall leaning on the iron terrace while there, and spotted a couch pillow on the rooftop adjacent. It looked … [Read more...]
